Re: The Magnacut Paramilitary 2

I help my friend on his crab boat in the summer time. Maybe I need to consider getting this one. What kind if edge retention does magnacut have? Am I gonna have to resharpen it after a day on the boat every time? I think it's safe to say it all depends on what you're cutting. The chart below is fro...

Re: Good knife friendly, reasonably priced cutting board

Do you live near a Ross clothing store? The ones I've been in have a kitchenware aisle with all kinds and sizes of cutting boards. They're all discounted, too. Some have pretty exotic looking wood with wild looking grain. I'm considered buying some and cutting them up for Mule Team scales. Edit: I j...

Re: What is your favorite Delica variant?

It’s tough to pick one, so I’d say these two. Corrosion resistance isn’t a priority for me so they’re both easy to care for. The Super Blue/SUS410 cuts like a razor and sharpens easily. The K390 is easy to sharpen scary sharp plus it has more toughness and edge holding capabilities.

Re: Looking For Tips to Darken Micarta with Oil only

Here are a few Spyderco’s with Micarta scales and one from brand-x. I oiled the PM2 at the bottom using mineral oil and it lightened back up to its natural tint; no real aging going on. The dark marks were there when I bought it. The other side looks like it was rubbed with white chalk. The second P...

Re: Credit Card Fraud!

Or do this. This account doesn’t exist, no charges will go through. And, I’ll be notified within seconds that a charge was attempted and declined. Problem solved. What app is that and what cards does it work with? Is it Capital One? Yes, but I have to think in 2024 other cc companies have this, too.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

I’ve been carrying the Canis since I got it a few days ago. How do you like it ? Does it have the rattle some have talked about ? I briefly had one ( a few days ) and helped a friend when they were very scarce. Dan No, this one is quiet. The only noise it makes is the lock bar clicking into place u...

Re: Upcoming Benchmade Mini-Grip or Full Size Griptilian Releases??

There’s this Mini Grip at Cabela’s/Bass Pro. They did have the full sized Griptilian for years, too, but it looks like those are gone.

Re: Caribbean Clip Screw Hole Problem

I'm late to the party, and don't know where you live, but I'm surprised no one mentioned that Spyderco will send out replacement clips. Now I know you don't need a clip, but they also send screws and threadlocker with the clips. If you had contacted them they probably would have sent you a bunch of ...
